We had such a great experience at The Mad Claw! We ordered the Snow Crab Family Bucket, which came lwith crab, shrimp, crawfish, mussels, corn, potatoes, and sausage. Everything tasted fresh and was cooked perfectly. The crab was sweet, and their spicy garlic sauce was incredible. They definitely don't skimp on the sauce either. The garlic noodles with shrimp were one of the biggest standouts for me. I honestly could not stop eating them. We also tried the loaded garlic fries, pickle bombs, and mac and cheese bites. As someone who loves pickles, the pickle bombs were so good and reminded me of a pickle version of a jalapeño popper. The mac and cheese bites were also perfect for the kids. We washed everything down with their Electric Oasis and Tropical Paradise dirty sodas, which were both delicious. The service was wonderful, and everyone made us feel welcome.

Awesome service by Azelia!She deserves a raise!!

Mad Cloth Review It's your girl, Christine the Realtor, out with Big Luck at The Mad Claw. Big Luck thought he was brave and ordered the hot garlic noodles. Y'all... his mouth is on FIRE. I swear you could see flames shooting out of his ears. It was so hot he had to steal my rice just to cool it down. Meanwhile, I was over here playing it smart with the medium peeled shrimp. Nice little kick, full of flavor, and I can still feel my tongue. Big Luck learned the hard way -- sometimes "medium" is the real luxury choice. Second time here. The service was good ambience is like a bar area without the bar. Music is going. It's a nice vibe.

The end of our meal, shrimp, noodles, wings

I love this place, the shrimps are a great sauce, the sauce is delicious and the price I think is fair! Brought my family in and we had the garlic noodles and chicken wings in addition to a pound a of shrimp. It was delicious. Service was great, we had the same waitress and she made sure we also had refills and didn't rush us. The place is spacious with lots of room and decorations and TVs. They were playing kids shows which my kiddos loved. I literally want to come here everyday lol.

Left over shrimp and corn ! Very delicious but got full !

Love sea food broil decided to try this place driving back home from San Diego service was good and food was great can never go wrong with a sea food broil

Service was great since the waiter was very friendly and very helpful. They played laid-back music, which had a relaxing vibe. The shrimp was cooked perfectly well, but the potatoes were slightly rough vs. soft. The sauce was bold, spicy, and flavorful. It paired nicely with the shrimp and added a kick to the aftertaste. Will be back to try something else.

2lb Peeled shrimp with corn and potatoes, Cajun fries, classic miches.

This place is soooooo delicious! I came here on a weekday and weekend and I was assisted right away. Staff are extremely attentive and super kind. The environment is clean and aesthetic to fit the seafood boil style. I always get the peeled shrimp with potatoes and corn full house and I've tried both hot and medium- just a heads up they are . I as a spice lover thought medium was good for me. The Cajun fries are also so good and always fresh. For drinks, the fish bowl is a HIT and the miches are sooooo fire. Really enjoyed this place and will definitely be coming back, it is now my seafood boil spot! 10/10 recommend.

I used to come here all the time but hadn't been in a while since we moved farther away. I was recently in town so decided to stop by. Service was quick and our waitress was nice. However, the food was just okay in my opinion. We ordered shrimp in their full house sauce. The sauce wasn't as good as I remembered and the shrimp was a bit overcooked.

Is there outdoor seating?

No, but there is a pretty large parking lot. So car dining is available.

Before me, two customers were purchasing alcohol, so she asked for their IDs as required. One of them apparently was 24 but did not have his ID, so the sale was rightfully declined. Then came my turn. I went to purchase my margarita mix, which contained NO alcohol. The cashier called a manager over for an ID check. The manager then told me they could not sell me the product because I had spoken to the two customers ahead of me. Excuse me? I am a grown-ass man who came into the store by myself, paid for my own items, and have never had an issue shopping here before. Apparently, having a conversation with another customer now means you somehow become responsible for their purchase. I left feeling like I was being unfairly profiled and discriminated against based solely on the fact that I interacted with the people ahead of me. If there was a legitimate store policy preventing the sale, I would have appreciated someone explaining it clearly instead of making assumptions. Apparently, my money isn't good here because I said hello to the wrong people. If you shop here, apparently the safest strategy is to keep your head down, don't speak to anyone, and definitely don't interact with anyone purchasing alcohol. You never know when the cashier or manager will decide you're suddenly part of their transaction. I have shopped here without problems before, but after this experience, I'll be taking my business elsewhere.

We were amazed by the selection and wish it was closer to our house. I was really interested in getting one of those buckets or bags with multiple drinks that you combine together to make one drink, but when I saw them, the prices were pretty outrageous. I guess you were paying for the convenience. I don't know anyway I bought one of the bagged items and my boyfriend got a single tall and we both got Michelada cups I got the cucumber lime flavor and he got a classic flavor once we got home we set everything up and started to film a video for social media to review the drink bag and shout out the store once I made my video I opened one of the cans that came in my bag and I saw some pieces floating in there then I checked the date and noticed that it was expired so I couldn't complete my drink because one of the items had gone bad thankfully it wasn't one of the alcoholic items, but it was disappointing. I have not posted the video yet online but here is some:

It sounded fancy, and honestly, who isn't always in the mood for brunch? We headed over and were pleasantly surprised by the ambiance. Not quite a restaurant per se, more like a cute little dining nook that decided to dress up for company. We were seated at a wooden half‑circle booth with plush pillows, which felt both cool and weirdly comforting, like brunching inside a stylish treehouse. Our waitress was sweet, attentive, and had that effortless "I've got you" energy. The Wife locked in the eggs Benedict, and I went for steak and eggs. Portions? Generous. Flavor? On point. The Wife will tell you the bacon was a tad firm, she's particular, but everything else was deliciously stacked on a biscuit like a little brunch monument. My steak was cooked perfectly, and the eggs were buttery enough to qualify as a personality trait. The martini that tied it all together? Exceptional. All in all, the service, food, and ambiance blended beautifully. We'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

I had heard that management had changed, so maybe that explains the very disappointing service we experienced the last time we dined in. We ordered wine, calamari, and two pasta dishes. When our food arrived, our server repeatedly asked if we needed a box to pack it to go. We had literally just received our entrees, and my wine glass was still full. There were no other tables dining at the time, so there was absolutely no reason to rush us. A few minutes later, another employee came over and asked if we needed a box as well. Then our server comes back and asks us if we need a box again. At that point, it was honestly becoming uncomfortable. We were clearly still eating and hadn't even finished our wine. Then, shortly after, our server dropped the check on the table without saying anything. My boyfriend finally spoke up and told her that we were still having dinner and that repeatedly being asked about a box was making us feel rushed. We hadn't even finished our wine, which was clearly visible. Her only response was that she was sorry, but there was no explanation for why we were being treated that way. We just left exact cash and just ended up walking out. Unfortunately, the entire dine-in experience gave us a very strange vibe. There seemed to be a lack of awareness among the staff, while the Asian manager was hovering around and very creepily staring, walking in and out of the restaurant peeking through the windows.
